I think the residents in Hydes Road have had enough now Severn Trent water.
They’ve been suffering with floods for a decade. You know things have got much worse. Their road has burst its drains more than half a dozen times in the last two years. The kids at Wodensborough school have had to miss their lessons as the flooded Road made their journey impossible. Manhole covers have popped off and cars have been damaged – I witnessed this myself today. Houses have been water logged and even your own equipment has been water damaged. Today I saw kids sodden with sewage water as the drivers sped passed in the receding water.
Start listening please.

Tom, you and your colleagues start managing, please. Not micro-managing, but the real stuff, down through the civil service.
I use this road three or four times a day every time its rains its gets flooded. All this weekend the manhole cover in the middle of road has been missing, causing a serious problem for road users. Surely Severn Trent should be prosecuted for raw sewage running into the Brook.
As a resident in Hydes Road I have complain to Severn Trent on a number of occasions, over a period of 2 years this road has been flooded with their sewage no fewer than 12 times. Severn Trent replied saying all tanks and valves have been tested and checked and all working properly. Is there any body at Severn Trent listening to their customers, this is a health hazard for all the residents and the school which is 100 yards away.
Hi Tom as you know we have experienced several periods of flooding which has closed the school and thereby affected the education of over a thousand students. The situation is compounded by the fact that the floodwater is seriously contaminated by sewage. When the flooding has occurred during the day I have had to stop students playing, and even swimming, across the road. Literally ‘going through the motions’.
There is always a smell of sewerage in this area.
We are being continually cut off through floods. I am sick of either being marooned or cant get back home.
Aston Cantlow badly needs the drains clearing also the gullies. The drain outside my house is full of solid matter washed down from the fields on Friday.
Also the ditch in Brook Lane, Aston Cantlow, is full of week and rubbish and cannot take away the excess water, necessitation the road to be closed for days on end.
Please isnt it time somelthing was done – I have lived here for 40 years and things have slowly got worse.
